Tip Tuesday! Batting

"Tip Tuesday!" - Batting

I love learning new things and then sharing that knowledge with my quilting friends. So, every Tuesday I'll provide some tips, hints, tricks, tutorials, shortcuts, etc. that I've learned over the years and share them here on the blog.

"Tip Tuesday" will be a collection of information about a wide variety of subjects garnered from a large variety of sources. I am not an expert by any means and do not take credit for being the great wizard behind all of these hints and tips. I will gladly give due credit whenever possible.

These tips will be archived and accessible to you just by clicking on the "Tip Tuesday" tab above.

Read, enjoy, and be inspired!

Batting!

Do you ever wonder what kind of batting you should use for your projects? Should you use the same one all of the time or change based on what you are making?

I use a different batting for wall hangings than I do for quilts, and yet a different type for table runners.

Do you know what scrim is?What about bearding?Do you know the difference between bonded and needle punch?
